CornerStone Music is proud to be an Authorized Premier G&L Dealer.This beautiful guitar is finished in Himalayan Blue with a Maple fret board and a rear body contour for additional playing comfort. Plays sweet and sounds even better!While the G&L ASAT Classic is Leo Fender’s final word on the traditional single-cutaway bolt-on guitar with its Magnetic Field Design single-coil pickups, the ASAT Classic Alnico blends latter-day-Leo Fender’s vision with uncompromising Alnico sonic flavor. Framed in a classic boxed-steel bridge, the single-coil Alnico V bridge pickup belts out meaty twang that that’ll stop you in your tracks, while individual brass saddles Leo upgraded for the ASAT Classic offer modern levels of intonation refinement. Flip to the Alnico V neck pickup and you’ll discover our spec offers a fuller tone than many others on the market. What’s more, the two pickups pair beautifully for an exceptionally sweet, jangly tone bursting with harmonics.These Alnico wonders have been carefully refined by G&L’s Paul Gagon for personal guitars since the late 1970s. Back then, Gagon was an R&D engineer at another company when he was tasked with finding out what was so special about the early bolt-on guitars many players raved about. Gagon analyzed many examples of what were considered “holy grail” guitars, spending time out on the shop floor talking to builders still working in the pickup department since the ‘50s, all on a quest to discover where the real mojo was – and wasn’t. What he learned from the builders matched his own engineering analysis. You see, back in the day, the actual spec of pickups coming that down that old production line varied considerably. Moreover, that nagging imbalance between bridge and neck pickup was something he longed to improve on, and today, Gagon’s preferred pairing of Alnico V pickups has arrived to delight the ears of the discerning guitarists.Like the G&L Legacy, the ASAT Classic Alnico combines best-of Alnico tone with modern Leo touches for a brilliant blend of vintage and contemporary.Comes with a luxurious hard case.
